Sensitivity of the test of memory malingering and the Nonverbal Medical Symptom Validity Test: a replication study.
Applied Neuropsychology 2011 October
The current investigation sought to replicate and extend the findings of Green ( in press ), which demonstrated superior sensitivity of the Nonverbal Medical Symptom Validity Test (NV-MSVT) relative to the Test of Memory Malingering (TOMM) in the detection of suboptimal effort during neuropsychological assessment. Nearly twice as many examinees failed the NV-MSVT than the TOMM. Profile analyses of the NV-MSVT demonstrated patterns suggestive of inconsistent effort in those who failed the NV-MSVT but passed the TOMM. A classification analysis employing the Word Memory Test and Medical Symptom Validity Test as external criteria for poor effort showed that the NV-MSVT is substantially more sensitive to poor effort than the TOMM and maintains an acceptable false-positive rate. Overall, results closely matched those of the Green ( in press ) study and extend the evidence that the NV-MSVT possesses better sensitivity to poor effort than the TOMM.
